2022 Massican - White Blend Napa Annia
Massican Annia 2022 is the winery’s flagship white, rooted in Dan Petroski’s Mediterranean-inspired style—high acidity, floral aromatics, and a subtle touch of salinity that nods to his Italian heritage and Friuli influences.
The 2022 vintage blends three grapes harvested and fermented separately before coming together roughly six weeks ahead of bottling. Ribolla Gialla and Tocai Friulano come from small Napa vineyards, while Chardonnay is sourced from Hyde Vineyard in Carneros. The Friulian varieties shape the wine’s aromatics, while the Chardonnay lends body and structure, all fermented across a mix of French oak and stainless steel.
The wine opens with lemon curd, honeysuckle, chamomile, and dried apricot, followed by a palate of citrus, yellow apple, and peach, with a mineral, wet stone quality and a whisper of sea salt. The texture stays soft even as the acidity keeps things lively.
Pairing: Grilled branzino, spring pea risotto, or fresh burrata.
